How does Halogen differ from conventional incandescent lighting?
Incandescent lighting is a conventional type of lighting with a tungsten filament vacuum bulb. Halogen lighting uses a gas-filled bulb. Be aware if any hand contact is made with a halogen bulb glass or socket, you could leave natural oils deposits and shorten the life of the bulb. Halogen lighting delivers the same brightness as incandesent lighting with only one-quarter of the energy consumption.
